Spring is finally in the air and the lambs are coming think and fast on some of our host farms. We love the sight of them bounding around the fields in the sunshine.

After delaying onsite visits due to the appalling weather, visits are back on 🙌 It's really important to us that we all make a connection between food & farming learn about where food comes from & understand more about the environment & conservation #education #outdoorlearning

It’s been a rather soggy day setting up at the North Somerset Show today but we’re almost ready for you. The forecast for tomorrow is looking better though and it’s set to be a great day for young and old. Come and find us in the Countryside Arena for lots of action packed fun…

Wow, what a great day we’ve had at the North Somerset Show. So great to chat about where our food comes, help people learn the art of butter making, apple juice pressing and getting up close to loads of farm animals. We’re off for an early night now…

We always love receiving feedback after a visit and it’s especially rewarding when you receive something like this… “A big thank you from all of Class 1 for ‘the best day ever’!” Thanks Kingsmoor Primary School - we loved having you visit us.

It's been so lovely seeing some of the recent calves out in the field this week at Lower Stock Farm - they're growing fast 🐮.

Today is #CowAppreciationDay so to mark the occasion (although we like to think we appreciate them every day!) we thought we’d share our favourite cow photos along with our best cow joke! 🐮 What do you get when a cow jumps on a trampoline? A milkshake! 🐮 Can you do better?

We currently have egg incubators out at 10 schools, with chicks hatching all the time… How cute are these fluffy little ones? 🐣

Meet Molly & Betty Sandford! It's hard to believe that just 6 months ago these feathered friends were cute fluffy chicks! Sandford Primary School visited us recently to see what the chicks they hatched earlier this year have turned into...

You may remember that we shared some work in progress photos of our new farm classroom at Lower Stock Farm a month or two ago. We're now delighted to share the finished article - who fancies coming to see it in person next academic year?
